About the project

ESC: CBB's Hyphen for Inclusion - Marche en Famenne

📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

The “Association des Compagnons Bâtisseurs” (CBB) is a non-profit Youth Organisation. The organisation proposes different kinds of activities, mainly based on volunteering and non-formal education: local and international workcamps, youth exchanges, mid/long term volunteering, leisure time activities for and with people with mental disabilities. Our ESC volunteer will be actively involved in our activities, from the prep to the evaluation, and their role will mainly be to facilitate, together with CBB leaders and other CBB volunteers, the participation of people with fewer opportunities or disabilities. Together with people with disabilities and local young volunteers, the volunteer will have the opportunity to participate in residential leisure time weekends all around Belgium and organize collective activities in Marche-en-Famenne. They will get to meet many new people while contributing to break down stereotypes and encouraging active citizenship and participation among the youth.

🏠 Accommodation on site

Accomodation: The volunteers will have a private room in a fully-equipped shared house in the city of Marche-en-Famenne, with other ESC volunteers. The house is located in the city centre (on a short foot-distance from the workplace) and has all the modern facilities. Food: the volunteer will receive a monthly allowance and will take care of the meals by themself. Participation in the European Solidarity Corps is free of charge for the participant, except for exceptional contribution to travel costs. Freeboard and lodging + pocket money.

🎒 Leisure activities

With the French-speaking National Agency of Belgium: on-arrival and mid-term seminars. With the support organization in Belgium (Association des Compagnons Bâtisseurs asbl, "CBB"): residential weekends and networking activities with other ESC volunteers on other projects supported by CBB in the French-speaking part of Belgium. The volunteers should be ready to take an active part in the collective networking activities and can count on many local resources to create personal projects.

⚠️ Requirements

The Participant profile: Open-minded, curious, enthusiastic, empathetic; motivated to work with people with mental disabilities on a regular basis; interest for COLLECTIVE activities; create a good group dynamic and ready to take on interesting challenges. The main activities will be organized in FRENCH, therefore, the volunteer should quickly be able to communicate in this language.

ℹ️ Additional information

The project is implemented under the European Solidarity Corps Programme, financed by the European Commission.
The participating organisations have to be mindful of these needs as they are responsible for providing a respectful and trusting hosting environment. At the same time, the organisations participating in the initiative devote a great deal of time, energy and resources to set up a high-quality activity; they should therefore expect that European Solidarity Corps participants show a similar level of respect for the local communities and the people that are directly concerned by the activities (https://youth.europa.eu/solidarity/mission_en).
